Celebrity Athens (Piraeus) Cruise Reviews

Our last cruise was ended on March 15, 2020, when we left the Celebrity Silhouette. We were scheduled to walk across the dock and board Celebrity EDGE. Imagine our surprise when we were told that ALL cruises were cancelled for an indefinite period of time. Who knew that it would be July of 2021 that we would officially cruise again? So many booked and cancelled cruises during that time. When ...

After 5 bookings and cancellations on Azamara we booked this cruise out of desperation and frustration! NOT A DISAPPOINTMENT at all. From the embarkation to disembarkation with everything in between , service was top notch! We had a Sky Suite(9183) and were blessed with Natalia (Butler/Host) and Alexander (Steward) and were spoiled from the first minute. I would encourage future guest to ...

Our family of four from the United States, two adults and two children ages 7 and 10 had the pleasure of cruising with Celebrity Apex the week of July 9-17, 2021. We were very pleased with Celebrity Apex. The service, food and amenities on board were truly top notch. What made this cruise unforgettable was truly the service our family received on board. The staff worked hard to make sincere ...

We found out absolutely by pure chance that Apex is sailing from Athens (one hour flight from Bucharest), as on all domestic sites mentioned the boat is in Barcelona, not sailing. We had a great experience, even though it was a little weird: we were accustomed to huge crowds, thousands of cruisers; well, we embarked 398 people in total - 395 Americans plus us 3 Romanians. ...

It's time to stop procrastinating and write the review I promised I'd write. But how do you review a cruise that was so far from ordinary that you'll never experience it again. I'll start with some demographics and a bit of the back story. My wife and I are avid cruisers and have settled on Celebrity as our favorite line for the past 8 years or so. We're in our 50's - 60's and this was our 35th ...

We can honestly say that this cruise exceeded our expectations. I was worried that the Covid restrictions would impact the experience but on the contrary they made you feel safe and they were handled brilliantly. From the pre-boarding experience with requirement for all passengers to be vaccinated and the testing of every passenger and staff member as you board and again as you leave it really ...

This last June we went on the maiden voyage of the Celebrity Apex out of Athens. My wife and I have been on well over 10 cruises on Celebrity and we were VERY disappointed about changes incorporated into the newest Celebrity ship class. First the positives! 1. The new running/walking track was fabulous! The idea of changing levels was excellent. 2. I found the main pool on the Apex to be ...

I will beginn at the beginning. As we arrived at the pier we were guided right through the point where the testing team had there cubicles.. One of the friendly Celebrity staff members must have recognized my friends an my own Captains Club tier as we were told to follow said staff member, who guided us right to the front of the line. We had to show our vaccination certificate and got ...

We wanted a cruise of the Greek Islands and the Infinity has a wonderful itinerary to see the islands as well as Israel. The ports of call were exactly what we were looking for. Israel was a very good stop and if anyone were to ask me I would say Israel is very safe and well worth visiting. It was the itinerary that brought us to Infinity. I have sailed two other Celebrity ships the Summit ...

We chose this cruise because we had a credit from a previous Celebrity Cruise where we had a problem. I liked the itinerary and despite some negative reviews about the Infinity we decided to go for it. All in all I thought it was a fine trip. Embarkation went very smoothly and we enjoyed the Concierge special lunch. Althought the ship was far from new it was not a dump. There were some ...
